Keep Christ in Christmas Poster Contest

The annual “Keep Christ in Christmas Poster Contest” is a fun and easy way for youth to express their faith as Advent and Christmas approach. This contest is open to youth in grades K – 8, broken down this year into five groups: students in grades K, 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, and grades 7 and 8. Students create their own poster on posterboard (or similar material) 11” x 17”. Each poster must reflect the Keep Christ in Christmas theme with a visual image. There is no limit to the number of posters each contestant may submit! Supreme has a lot of resources dealing with this contest. Councils interested in conducting this contest should order the Poster Contest Kit, which contains the entry forms, publicity information, etc. in September or October.
